You order it online and pick a certified draw location near you. Your results arrive within a few working days, assessed by a doctor.
Why a comprehensive blood test?
Your blood says something about many systems at once. A comprehensive panel brings those systems together in one overview. That reveals patterns a single biomarker would not show.
Many people want to know where their body stands. That applies even when you have no complaints. Shifts in your values are often slow and unnoticed.
For anyone who trains, that matters even more. Your training, your food and your recovery all play a part. You then work with numbers instead of guesswork.
Who is this test for?
This blood test may suit people who:
- want a wide view of their general health
- train and want to follow recovery at marker level
- are considering a preventive blood test as a yearly check
- feel tired or flat and want a broad starting point
- prefer one panel over several separate tests
- want a baseline to compare against later
Do you have specific complaints? Discuss with a doctor which values are useful for you.
What does this blood test check for?
This panel measures nineteen biomarkers, grouped by area:
- Hormones: Total Testosterone and SHBG.
- Thyroid: TSH, Free T3 and Free T4.
- Cholesterol: total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and triglycerides.
- Liver, kidney: Albumin, Liver function test, Urea, Creatinine and eGFR.
- Metabolism: HbA1c, your longer-term blood sugar.
- Vitamins and iron: Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 and Ferritin.
- Blood count: Small Blood Count, for your red blood cells and platelets.
Most standard blood tests fall into a handful of panels. This one carries four of them. Those are a lipid panel, a thyroid panel, a metabolic panel and a blood count.
That metabolic panel covers your liver, your kidney and your blood sugar. On top of those it adds testosterone and SHBG, plus vitamin D, B12 and ferritin.
This panel carries a Small Blood Count. Do you want a complete blood count with differential? You order that as a separate test.
What can a blood test tell you?
Your cholesterol values say more together than apart. LDL is often called bad cholesterol, HDL good cholesterol. What counts is the ratio between the two.
Your blood lipids relate to your risk of cardiovascular disease. You never judge that risk on one value alone. Smoking, blood pressure and exercise all play a part.
Your thyroid markers say something about energy and metabolism. An overactive thyroid causes different complaints than a slow one. Your vitamin and iron values may point to a shortage.
A high value says little on its own. It only gains meaning alongside your other values.
How much does a blood test cost in the Netherlands?
This panel costs €346. You pay yourself and need no referral.
If your GP requests the blood work, that works differently. The GP orders the determinations directly. Such testing usually falls under your Dutch insurance excess.
Some people deliberately choose their own route, because they prefer not to wait. Others would rather discuss results with their GP first. Both work, and you can combine them.

How is your blood drawn?
A phlebotomist draws one tube of blood at a certified location. You choose from 700+ draw locations across the Netherlands. The draw itself usually takes a few minutes.
Bring your appointment confirmation and valid photo ID. You may be left with a small bruise at the puncture site. It normally fades within a few days.
When is this test useful?
A blood test like this can be useful at several moments:
- when you want a wide baseline of your blood values
- when you feel tired and want to look at several systems
- when you want to follow the effect of training or food
- when you want to track your values once a year
Want to go deeper? Our Whoop panel measures forty-three markers.
What do the results mean?
Each value is compared against a reference range. A value outside that range does not automatically mean something is wrong.
With a wide panel a doctor looks at how the values relate. Always discuss abnormal values with your GP. That way you know what the result means for you.
What happens after the results?
Your results appear in your account, usually within a few working days. Per value you see whether it falls inside the reference range. You can then share your results with your own GP.
Every blood test result carries an assessment by a BIG-registered doctor. Discuss your results with your GP before any treatment decisions.
Frequently asked questions
That depends on the panel. This one measures nineteen biomarkers. They cover your hormones, thyroid, cholesterol and liver. Also your kidney, blood sugar, vitamins and blood count.
Lists differ, but five panels come up most often. Those are a blood count, a metabolic panel and a lipid panel. A thyroid panel and a liver panel complete the set. This test covers all five, and adds testosterone, SHBG, vitamin D, B12 and ferritin.
That depends on the route. If your GP requests it, the work usually runs through your insurer and counts against your excess. Ordering this panel here costs €346 directly, and your excess stays untouched. We cannot guarantee reimbursement.
Not for this one. You order it yourself online and can discuss your results with your GP afterwards.
This panel carries a Small Blood Count, covering your red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. For a complete blood count with differential, order that as a separate test.
For your blood lipids and blood sugar, fasting can be helpful. For your hormone values the morning is often a better moment.

What's Included
This panel covers 19 biomarkers related to your training, recovery, and overall health.
| No. | Biomarker | Unit | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | HbA1c (Glycated Hemoglobin) HbA1c (glycated haemoglobin) reflects your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. It is the gold standard for long-term blood sugar monitoring and diabetes management. | mmol/mol | 2 days |
| 02 | TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) TSH is thyroid-stimulating hormone. The pituitary gland makes it, and uses it to drive your thyroid. At the laboratory that runs the test the usual adult range runs from 0.27 to 4.20 mE/L. A high TSH usually fits an underactive thyroid. A low value usually fits an overactive one. That direction feels inverted, and it is. TSH is the pituitary signal, not the thyroid hormone itself. Laboratories use slightly different limits from one another. Always read the reference value printed on your own result. And a single measurement is never a diagnosis. | mu/l | 2 days |
| 03 | Triglycerides Triglycerides are the most common type of fat in the body, used for energy storage. Elevated levels may be associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, especially when combined with other lipid abnormalities. | mmol/l | 1 day |
| 04 | Urea (BUN) BUN (blood urea nitrogen) measures the amount of urea nitrogen in your blood, a waste product formed when the body breaks down protein. It is primarily used to evaluate kidney function and can be influenced by diet, hydration status, and liver health. | mmol/l | 5 days |
| 05 | Creatinine Creatinine is a waste product that is continuously produced in your muscles. The kidneys filter it out of the blood and remove it in urine. The blood creatinine level is therefore a core number for kidney function. In Dutch it is written both as creatinine and as kreatinine. Because production depends on your muscle mass, the same figure reads differently per person. A raised creatinine does not automatically point to a kidney problem. This page explains what high and low values can mean. It also covers the everyday things that shift the result temporarily. | umol/l | 1 day |
| 06 | eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) is a calculated measure of how effectively your kidneys filter waste from the blood. It is the gold standard for diagnosing and staging chronic kidney disease and is derived from blood creatinine or cystatin C levels along with demographic factors. | ml/min/1,73m² | 1 day |
| 07 | Free T4 (Thyroxine) Free T4 (thyroxine) is the main hormone produced by the thyroid gland. It may serve as a precursor that your body converts into the more active T3. Healthcare providers often consider Free T4 a primary indicator of thyroid gland output. | pmol/l | 4 days |
| 08 | LDL Cholesterol LDL cholesterol is the amount of cholesterol carried inside LDL particles, the particles that can build up in the artery wall. That is where its nickname comes from: the bad cholesterol. Two things rarely appear on a report. First, in a routine lipid panel LDL is usually not measured but calculated from your total cholesterol, your HDL and your triglycerides. Second, the 3.0 mmol/l upper limit is a population reference interval, not a target. What counts as a good LDL for you is decided by your overall cardiovascular risk, not by the line printed on the page. | mmol/l | 1 day |
| 09 | Liver Function Test (LFT) A liver function test is a comprehensive blood panel that combines multiple markers to assess overall liver health and function. It typically includes enzymes such as ALT, AST, and GGT, along with bilirubin, albumin, and other indicators to provide a complete picture of how well the liver is performing. | — | 4 days |
| 10 | SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) SHBG stands for sex hormone binding globulin. It is a protein made by the liver. SHBG binds testosterone tightly and oestradiol somewhat more loosely. Hormone bound to SHBG cannot act in the tissues. SHBG therefore determines how much of your total testosterone is genuinely available. SHBG is not itself a sex hormone but a transport protein. Results are reported in nmol/l. Normal values differ by sex and by age, and in men SHBG rises as they get older. An SHBG should therefore be assessed alongside total testosterone, never on its own. | nmol/l | 5 days |
| 11 | Vitamin B12 Vitamin B12 is considered essential for red blood cell formation, neurological function, and DNA synthesis. Deficiency may develop gradually and is sometimes associated with dietary patterns. Healthcare providers can help interpret your results. | pmol/l | 3 days |
| 12 | Vitamin D (25-OH) Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin. Its main job is the absorption of calcium and phosphate from the gut. That makes it decisive for bone metabolism. The skin produces it under the influence of sunlight. Food and supplements supply a smaller share. | nmol/l | 3 days |
| 13 | Total Testosterone Total testosterone measures the combined amount of bound and free testosterone in the blood. As the primary androgen, testosterone may influence muscle mass, bone density, libido, mood, and energy levels in both men and women. | nmol/l | 2 days |
| 14 | Free T3 (Triiodothyronine) Free T3 (triiodothronine) is considered the most active thyroid hormone. It may play a key role in regulating metabolism, energy production, and body temperature. Healthcare providers often assess Free T3 alongside other thyroid markers for a comprehensive picture. | pmol/l | 4 days |
| 15 | Ferritin Ferritin is a protein that stores iron, so your ferritin level shows how large your iron reserve is. Serum iron only measures how much iron is circulating in your blood at that moment; ferritin describes the reserve behind it. That reserve empties before your haemoglobin falls, so a low ferritin can already cause symptoms while your blood count still looks normal. Ferritin also rises with inflammation, infection and liver strain, which is why it can only be read properly alongside a CRP. Commonly used reference values are 30 to 400 µg/l for men and 15 to 150 µg/l for women, but your own laboratory report is what counts. | ug/l | 2 days |
| 16 | HDL Cholesterol HDL cholesterol is the amount of cholesterol carried inside the HDL particles in your blood. Those particles pick cholesterol up from your tissues and from the artery wall and take it back to the liver. That transport is what earned HDL the nickname good cholesterol. The nickname is misleading. HDL is above all a mirror of your metabolism: the value drops with excess weight, insulin resistance, smoking and inactivity, and it is those factors that carry the risk. Drugs that raise HDL substantially do not reduce the number of cardiovascular events. And more is not always better: at very high values, mortality in large population studies turns back upwards. So never read your HDL on its own. It only takes on meaning alongside your triglycerides, your LDL and your overall risk profile. | mmol/l | 1 day |
| 17 | Albumin Albumin is the most abundant protein in the blood, produced by the liver. It maintains fluid balance, transports hormones and nutrients, and serves as an indicator of liver and kidney function. | g/l | 2 days |
| 18 | Total Cholesterol Total cholesterol measures the combined amount of HDL, LDL, and VLDL cholesterol in your blood. It provides an overview of your lipid status but should be interpreted alongside individual components for a complete cardiovascular risk picture. | mmol/l | 1 day |
| 19 | Basic Blood Count A basic blood count measures three core values in your blood: hemoglobin, white blood cells and platelets. Together they say something about oxygen transport, immune defence and clotting. It is a simple baseline check, without the red-cell indices and white-cell differential of a complete blood count. | — | 2 days |
| Your result arrives once the slowest test is finished: 5 days. This is indicative; turnaround varies per laboratory. | |||
Preparation
-
Been ill? Wait a little
RequiredHad a fever, an infection or a vaccination in the past 2 weeks? Wait with the draw until you are fully recovered. These values react to inflammation and would give a distorted picture.
-
Pause biotin
RequiredDo you take a supplement with biotin (vitamin B8, common in hair, skin and nail supplements)? Stop it 72 hours before the draw. Biotin interferes with the measurement of these values.
-
Better no hard training beforehand
RecommendedHard exercise in the 48 hours before can raise this value temporarily. Plan the draw on a rest day if you can.
-
No alcohol beforehand
RequiredDrink no alcohol in the 24 hours before the draw.
-
Preferably fasting
RecommendedComing fasting gives a slightly cleaner value, but it is not required. If it suits you, eat nothing from 22:00 the evening before and drink only water.
-
Have the draw in the morning
RequiredThese values vary over the day and peak in the morning. Have your blood drawn before 10:00, ideally between 07:00 and 09:00.
-
On levothyroxine? Worth knowing
Good to knowTell the staff at the draw when you took your tablet; for most values the timing makes no difference.
- Water is always fine. Drink as usual beforehand, it makes the draw easier.
- Take your usual medication, unless your own doctor told you otherwise.
